Stroke is the leading cause of complex adult disability in the world, but currently we do not provide a sufficient dose of the right physical or behavioural interventions to drive recovery Clear lesion-induced
The qualitative and quantitative aspects of brain damage following stenotic or occlusive cerebrovascular diseases can be many. The paper takes into consideration cases of socalled "completed" stroke. The hypothesis is advanced that there are completed stroke patients in whom the brain functional ...

Paralysisis a loss of muscle function and sensation in an area of the body. Hemiparesisis a weakness of muscles on one side of the body. Improving posture, range of motion, and strength can help individuals regain control. Hemianopiais the loss of sight in half of the visual field. ...
In this regard, an exact delineation of stroke lesions constitutes a crucial step for structure/function studies in the field of neuropsychology (Seghier et al., 2008; Stamatakis and Tyler, 2005; Wilke et al., 2011). The typology of stroke can be broadly classified into two categories: 1)...

Stroke.If blood flow and oxygen suddenly can't reach an area of your brain, the cells there can quickly become damaged. The body part (like an arm or leg) that's controlled by that brain area may no longer function properly. Strokes can cause symptoms such as: ...

the diversity of cell types and their molecular signatures and the effect of mutations on the brain remain poorly understood. For example, de novo loss-of-function mutations in autistic children have been shown to converge on three distinct pathways: synaptic function, Wnt signaling, and chromatin...
